Luke 20:1-8 – The implication in the challenge as to where Jesus’ authority came from was that the chief priests were the ones who granted such authority. They certainly didn’t, so what was he doing here? Jesus asking the question about John’s baptism was to answer their challenge with his own. If you think you should have the power to remove my authority to speak, show me that you’re worthy of it. They could not, so Jesus wouldn’t answer to them.
\nLuke 20:16 – I don’t get it – Why were the people shocked when Jesus said that the owner would destroy the wicked tenants who beat and mistreated 3 of his servants and killed his son? To me, that’s justice and I would have thought the crowd would have thought so too.
